With a thunderous noise, the sand dunes in the distance exploded with flashes of lightning.
The sand dunes disappeared in an instant, and dust was scattered all around.
"Don't be afraid, she is alone!"
Some sand ninjas shouted loudly, as if to encourage others and themselves to dispel the fear in their hearts.
A large number of sand ninja corpses had fallen on the sand. Many people were injured in the lightning explosion. Blood was constantly flowing from their foreheads, and their eyes were blood red.
Fire, thunder and lightning, storm wind, chakra-infused shurikens, and detonating kunai were all released towards Susanoo.
Facing the joint attacks released by hundreds or even more Sand Ninjas, Liuli felt a little resistance.
Susanoo, with only half of his body exposed, was also moving forward with difficulty, waving the chakra giant sword in his hand and throwing out the sword light.
Although they were attacked by Ruri at first, resulting in a large number of casualties, the Suna Ninja quickly reacted and restored the momentum that the Five Great Nations Ninja Village should have.
The Suna ninja summoned here are all the elites of Sand Hidden Village. Not to mention their combat prowess, their willpower means that they will not easily collapse mentally even if they face strong enemies.
The stronger the enemy, the more ferocious fighting spirit they can arouse in their hearts.
In the smoke that gradually dissipated, Ruri and Susanoo stood there unscathed.
The sand ninjas were not discouraged. They already knew how hard the opponent's move was.
However, no matter what ninjutsu, there must be weaknesses, and maintaining such a huge physical giant of chakra must also consume a lot of chakra.
Even if it is to use delaying tactics to drain the enemy's chakra and then win, this is a method.
This was also the common thought of most of the Sunagakure Jonin present.
When it is impossible to face the enemy head-on, a roundabout strategy can be regarded as a method.
"Even bugs can be a bit troublesome when they are densely packed."
Seemingly seeing the containment tactics of these sand ninjas, Liuli was not disappointed.
She would not take it for granted that the Suna Ninja were a group of brainless fools. Maybe their individual strength was far inferior to hers, but in large enough numbers, they could still pose a great threat to her.
Especially using long-lasting tactics to drain her chakra.
She doesn't have enough chakra to waste.
"Konoha's powerful whirlwind!"
Two voices sounded at the same time, and Liuli turned her head slightly.
Two roundhouse kicks hit Susanoo on his back at the same time. Dai and Kai and his son both turned on the eight-door armor mode.
Dai Kai arrived at the fourth gate, the Hurt Gate.
Kai has also opened up to the fourth gate, the Hurt Gate.
In this mode, two powerful roundhouse kicks, with chakra attached to the feet, caused Susanoo's body to shake slightly before returning to stability.
Dai and Kai both had solemn expressions on their faces.
Susanoo was more stable and solid than they thought.
Ruri glanced at the two of them and turned around. Susanoo also turned around and raised his giant sword to chop them down mercilessly.
"Fire Thunder!"
Even if the two people stepped back in time, they were hit by the burst of lightning. Their bodies were restrained by the lightning, and they let out a painful groan.
But soon they used the continuous burst of chakra in their bodies to wipe out the current in their bodies.
"Ruolei."
Dai and Kai's eyes widened, and they saw the huge Susanoo in front of them disappearing from the ground.
A chill ran down my spine.
boom!
The attack fell from behind, with lightning strafing. Kai vomited blood and rolled out, the green steam on his body dying.
"You're still neglecting your training, Kai."
"No matter how long I have seen you, you are still very strong, Teacher Liuli..."
Kai climbed up from the ground with difficulty, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and gave a weak smile.
"Unfortunately, this is different from the actual combat exercises in the past. This is a real battlefield! Even if you are my student, I will not show mercy!"
A cold light appeared in Liuli's eyes, and the giant sword swept out again, enveloping dense thunder and lightning.
boom!
Golden sand flies before your eyes.
Kai stared blankly at the huge wall erected in front of him, shining with golden light.
"Don't be in a daze here, Konoha. Don't worry, I will fight side by side with you next time."
Kazekage Rasa's voice sounded from behind Kai. He crossed his arms and spread the placer gold in front of him with awe, and looked at Susanoo Naka Ruri.
Surrounded by a large number of sand ninjas, they were ready to attack.
Dai jumped to Kai's side. At this time, the rest of the Konoha ninjas also arrived. One of them walked to Kai's side and used medical ninjutsu to heal his injuries.
Luo Sha took a step forward and said to Liuli in a deep voice: "You have no way out, Uchiha Liuli. Now that you are being judged, I can still let you live. Don't expect your subordinates to rescue you. They have been killed by Sunagakure." The assault force intercepted it and will not come back again."
The voice was full of confidence.
One of the Five Kages, more than two thousand Sand Ninja, and many of Konoha's elite Jonin.
With such a lineup, absolutely no one in the ninja world can escape.
What's more, there is only one person on the other side.
The outcome is decided.
Ruri controlled Susanoo to put down the giant sword in his hand, and his momentum suddenly calmed down and he regained his composure.
"Are you going to give up?"
Luo Sha narrowed her eyes. Although the other party did show this intention, she had to be on guard until the last moment to prevent the other party from being defeated.
"Give up? You should wait until you wake up to talk about this. Since everyone is here, I don't have to hold back anymore. Let's end the warm-up here."
"What?"
warm up? Was the battle just now just a warm-up? Luo Sha didn't understand Liuli's intention for a while.
Is it a bluff, or...
The next moment, his breath caught.
His face was shrouded in shadows that blocked the sky.
Not just him, the faces of many Sand Ninjas were also shrouded in huge shadows, and their entire bodies were swallowed up by the shadows of warriors rising from the ground.
The original half-body Susanoo showed his legs almost instantly, standing on the desert, with thick chakra armor draped around his body, and a mask falling from the helmet, covering the face of the huge warrior, except for his eyes and forehead. parts exposed.
The movement of lightning and thunder wrapped around the giant warrior. The warrior slowly raised his left hand, and a dark red chakra sword that was the same as the one in his right hand was grabbed out of the void and held tightly in his hand.
Ruri himself stood between the eyebrows of the giant samurai at this time, surrounded by Susanoo's chakra armor to form a protective layer like a copper wall and an iron wall, overlooking the desert from above.
"W-what is this?"
Rasa stared at the giant samurai in front of her with a horrified expression that surpassed common sense. It was already comparable in size to a tailed beast as big as a small mountain.
A ninja's body is like a slightly larger insect in front of such a behemoth.
Looking at such a huge body, Luo Sha felt like he didn't know where to start.
He had no idea that Liuli had hidden such a trick.
Could it be that the previous two battles with him were just what she called...warming up?
Luo Sha found it difficult to accept such a cruel fact.
Looking at the huge warrior as big as a tailed beast, is this really a state that a ninja can achieve?
"Who are you?"
Luo Sha asked this question with some difficulty.
Liuli glanced at him lightly, and seemed to be telling those Konoha ninjas:
"A ninja who inherits the Uchiha name, nothing more."
Uchiha.
The name of this family, once upon a time, was as high as the Senju clan where the ninja god Senju Hashirama belonged.
However, as an incident happened not long ago, many people believed that the Uchiha clan, which was once all-powerful in the ninja world, had completely declined.
Being able to be exterminated by a thirteen-year-old child, the Uchiha clan once became the laughing stock of the top ninja villages in the ninja world.
Only after seeing the power displayed by Liuli now did Luo Sha realize how shallow his vision of the Uchiha clan's strength was.
He wanted to believe that this was an illusion created by Liuli.
However, the thick pressure that lingered in the air made it clear to him that this was not an illusion at all.
But the bloody and cruel fact.
"Really? But unfortunately, I am Kazekage!"
Luo Sha's eyes became firm, it was certain that the enemy was very strong.
However, if Sunagakure surrenders with the power of unity that Sunagakure has gathered, then Sunagakure will completely become a laughing stock in the shinobi world.
The so-called victory or defeat can only be known after the battle.
"Don't be afraid, come with me!"
Luo Sha took a deep breath, and all the chakra in his body began to flow in his body. There was no wind and waves on the desert, and the placer gold rolled and bit towards Liuli.
The same is true for the Sand Ninjas. Even if they face such power, just witnessing it will make them fearful.
However, even if you understand some things, you still need to stand up and fight.
There is no way back.
"kill!"
To encourage the fighting spirit in their hearts, the Sand Ninjas shouted in unison.
The Suna ninjas standing on the front line and the ninjas responsible for the main attack rushed forward without fear of death, while those responsible for containment released ninjutsu from behind to perform feint attacks and containment.
Pretend to be protracted and delay the fight until the opponent is exhausted.
This is the strategy they deployed, and it remains unchanged from before.
But this will definitely be accompanied by many sacrifices.
Liuli watched as countless sand ninjas charged, unleashing countless ninjutsu and detonating kunai on themselves.
She watched all this calmly, and then, the two swords overlapped from Susanoo's hands, and then spread out violently.
The shocking sword power did not require any ninjutsu to form a powerful storm, deflecting all weak attacks.
The sword light slashed out, and the sand ninja flew into the air.
But then more Sand Ninja rushed up and did not give up.
Liuli looked indifferently at these sand ninjas who were not afraid of death, and the lightning in the Mangekyō Sharingan's eyes danced.
Facing this group of sand ninjas, the two swords slashed out mercilessly.
This is the respect given to warriors.
The two sides fight for each other's position, and it has nothing to do with justice or good or evil, only winners and losers.
This is the battle of ninjas.
Even if the enemy is weak individually, the enemy's will cannot be insulted.
It is precisely because of this that Liuli shows off his power and can only do his best to respect the fighting will of these sand ninjas.
Even if this kind of respect will be accompanied by countless deaths and sacrifices.
For Liuli, there are many reasons to fight.
But it does not include peace and justice.
She is quite selfish.
Family, clan, that's all.
For the sake of her husband, for the future children, for the reputation of the family, and to be able to fight against a truly powerful enemy...
There is no better reason to fight for yourself than these.
His body was injured by the giant sword, struck by lightning, and swept away by the storm, but as long as he still had breath, the Sand Ninja did not take a step back.
fighting.
It is the only belief in their hearts.
A huge placer gold pyramid emerged and fell from the sky.
Liuli glanced at it, and Susanoo swung the sword in his right hand.
The pyramid split in half.
The power of placer gold that could suppress Ichibi Shukaku several times seemed pale and powerless at this moment.
No attack is as good as a samurai's sword.
Human power cannot be shaken.
"Thunder."
There was a solemn silence between heaven and earth.
Invisible fluctuations, centered on Susanoo, spread out in all directions.
The Suna ninja around Susanoo looked stunned, and you could see that their bodies and expressions were very stiff.
Luo Sha broke away from such a restraint in just an instant with her powerful chakra and willpower.
Then, the giant sword fell from above his head, leaving him no time to dodge, and he hurriedly commanded Sand Gold's defense.
boom!
A sword mark was cut in the sand that extended into the distance.
Lightning flashed in the dents made by the sword.
Faced with such power, placer gold collapsed at the first touch.
"Kazekage-sama!"
Luo Sha was covered in blood, and the shouts of many Sand ninjas could be heard in his ears, but he ignored them. Instead, he gritted his teeth in pain and looked at Liu Li, who was watching indifferently. His palms were already starting to tremble.
Luo Sha understood that she was scared.
As one of the Five Shadows, I cannot defeat such a power head-on.
"It's as powerful as a monster, Sharingan..."
Perhaps the value of Byakugan lies in grand strategy.
However, in the face of the ultimate power of the Sharingan, is the so-called strategy really useful?
So, from the beginning, it was a trap.
And Sunagakure jumped in without hesitation.
However, the self-esteem of being a Five Kage cannot be discarded easily.
It's too early to give up now. Luo Sha fought against the pain in her body and clasped her hands together.
Gather all the placer gold arranged in secret.
Success or failure depends on this.
Liuli's eyes narrowed slightly and looked down.
Countless amounts of placer gold spread up from the ground, like a gushing flood, spreading around, but they immediately formed a territorial consciousness and planned to cover Susanoo's location with placer gold.
And in these placer gold, I feel a stronger binding force than the previous placer gold, and the proportion of chakra is also heavier.
Even the 'Wakarai' that could teleport with Susanoo could not be used.
"Sealing technique?"
Liuli murmured.
This move should be used to suppress Ichibi.
However, the reason why this move can be used to suppress Ichibi is because of the special nature of placer gold, and there are already techniques developed specifically for Ichibi.
And this kind of technique does not have a strong restraining effect on Susanoo.
Ruri controlled Susanoo to raise both swords and was about to slash them down.
"Don't try to succeed!"
The sound of loud drinking sounded.
Liuli stared intently.
"Fang!"
Everyone subconsciously covered their ears. The roars of furious beasts penetrated the palms of flesh and penetrated into people's earholes roughly and savagely, causing many people to lose their ability to think in an instant.
A silhouette of burning blue steam was condensed with a huge shadow of a four-legged beast. His amazing jumping ability allowed him to jump over Susanoo's head and swing a fierce punch in front of him.
It was Matt Day.
"Blue Steam, is it already the seventh gate? Moreover, this move..."
The beast-like punch is not the so-called condensed chakra, but a move similar to an air cannon.
Violent and ferocious, like the sharp teeth of a wild beast, it bites in front of its eyes and devours the enemy.
Susanoo's body trembled, and a few cracks appeared between his eyebrows, but they were not fatal.
However, because of this, Liuli lost the best time to counterattack.
Countless amounts of placer gold rushed up quickly, swallowing up all the Susanoo, and turned into an extremely majestic huge pyramid, suppressing the Susanoo warriors inside.
Everyone stared at this scene blankly, and then burst into cheers.
"Succeeded..."
Dai also managed to pull out a smile at the corner of his mouth, his face was a little pale, and his aura was slumped.
Boom!
The huge pyramid began to shake. The Sand Ninja's cheers were only halfway through. They immediately stopped cheering in fear and looked at the huge pyramid with doubtful eyes.
"Fu Lei."
A cool, crisp voice echoed in the air.
Thunderclouds roared, and the sky was filled with clouds and lightning. Countless thunder snakes were spitting thunder in the sky, looking down ferociously.
The sand ninjas stiffened and watched the unusual changes in the sky.
Finally, lightning fell from the sky, shining on everyone's faces, reflecting their somewhat desperate faces.
Even Luo Sha himself looked at the changes in the sky with some shock.
Under the power of thunder, the placer gold turned into gold powder and collapsed.
The huge warrior holding two swords, his burly body loomed between the clouds and lightning, his eyes were blood red, reflecting the scene like a sea of blood.
Thunder light condensed on the armor, and the blade of the sword was also imbued with violent thunder power.
Thunder roared in the sky for a long time.
"Are you kidding me?"
"How can it be……"
"The sealing technique used by Lord Kazekage to suppress Shukaku, unexpectedly..."
Many sand ninjas find it difficult to accept this cruel reality.
Many of them had seen this sealing technique, and they had easily suppressed the rampaging One-Tailed Shukaku many times in the desert, leaving Shukaku unable to fight back.
However, it was difficult for them to accept that such a powerful sealing technique was shattered by lightning in just an instant.
"If the kid from Thunder Maru is here, we should be able to go further, but this level should be enough..."
Feeling the completely transformed Susanoo, Ruri murmured to herself.
The ability of the Eight Thunder Gods' Thunder Burst is somewhat similar to that of Thundermaru's Senjutsu. If it is actually in the field of Raikenmaru's Senjutsu, this ability will be further strengthened, making Susanoo's offensive and defensive capabilities stronger again.
Then, he glanced at Luo Sha and Matt Dai, and finally fixed his gaze on Matt Dai, with a trace of regret in his eyes.
"The blow you just made was indeed very strong. Unfortunately, the power was too dispersed, so you couldn't break my Susanoo. Even if you took the secret medicine of the Akimichi clan, it was only to this extent... I have to say that because of your lack of talent, , limiting the true power of the Eight Gate Dunjia."
If it were the woman with the rolling eyes, she could do better.
Dai's 'Vicious Fang' punch, if the power is concentrated, can be compared with Ayane's Divine Sky Strike.
However, the opponent's control skills were a bit mediocre, which resulted in the power of the fist being dispersed. Although the damage range was increased, the threat to her Susanoo was greatly reduced because the force was not concentrated enough.
This is what Liuli feels regretful about.
She didn't mean to resent or blame the other person, she was just stating a fact.
But this fact is extremely cruel.
Because of the lack of talent, that blow was wasted.
In other words, this is the limit of the Konoha ninja named 'Matt Dai'.
Even if it was a pity that the other party had tried his best, Liuli would treat him as an opponent and kill him with his own hands.
Just respect for such a ninja.
Liuli knew very well that in order to learn forbidden techniques like Eight Gate Dunjia that were harmful to the body, Matt Dai had put in so much effort and time that would shock everyone, and endured so much pain and loss before he finally developed such a body of steel. and will.
Liuli couldn't deny this kind of effort.
Thinking of this, Liuli felt even more regretful.
If Matt Dai's talent could be improved, the attack would be stronger, and she would pay more attention to it.
The result is just that, as long as Susanoo's armor cannot be broken, the essence is not much different from the attack of a kunai.
"Looking at it this way, as long as I am the only one who can be used as a deterrent, there is no need to use that technique..."
In this way, Shiraishi can also hide a killer move and use it as a trump card.
But Liuli didn't notice that when she said 'because of lack of talent', Dai's heart was deeply hurt.
Liuli's words reminded him of many unbearable events in the past.
Looking at Liuli who was looking around, jealousy flashed in Dai's eyes, as well as a desire for 'genius'.
Then he laughed at himself, that's right, how can mortals easily access the realm of genius?
Dai Ziran understands this, he is a mortal.
After living for more than twenty years, he was still a little-known genin in the village at that time. He was often said to be a weakling and an incompetent ninja.
After he showed strength that surpassed that of a genin, the Hokage was impressed by him.
Dai also knew what the Hokage saw in him.
Even so, so what?
It is precisely because we are mortals that we have to pursue true 'youth'.
Regardless of whether his efforts have paid off, it is not his character to blame others.
If there is anything special that you desire when joining this battle, it is that even a mortal would want to be like a genius, be praised by the stars and enjoy the glory of everyone.
Even if...it will eventually turn into a flash of fireworks!
But as long as you enjoy the glory of that moment, life is enough.
This is not only to prove the meaning of his existence to the genius, but also to live up to the expectations of the village, and to keep Kai alive in this battle.
Facing genius, mortals are insurmountable.
The genius' strength gave him a sense of despair.
It is precisely this that can break such despair.
After scanning the faces of Suna Ninja and Konoha Ninja, who had despair and fear on their faces, Dai made a decision in his heart.
He pressed his thumb against his heart and slowly closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, the skin all over his body was congested and turned red, and blue steam swayed uneasily on his body, threatening to go out at any time.
The chakra in the body rushes towards the heart.
